This hill, now know as Hill of Crosses has estimated more than 100’000 crosses, rosaries and statues, brought from all over the…

Kawai Katsuo was supposed to be in Riga this month for the kuš! comics residency. Unfortunately it turned out differently. But he remains active and drew a comics for us in self-isolation in Japan. Hope to welcome him in Riga soon and take him to the Hill of Crosses.

The Hill Of Crosses in Lithuania is a beautiful and mysterious place that is home to over 200,000 crosses and crucifixes, and countless rosaries. The hill has many secrets. According to folklore, there was once a church where the hill now stands. During a terrible storm, lightning struck the church and the tempest buried it under sand and rock with everyone still inside. Locals say that you can glimpse a procession of monks at the foot of the hill at sunrise. Throughout the ages, apparitions, visions of saints and sightings of ghosts have been a part of the hill’s history.” Read the full story on our site (Link in bio) . . . . . #ucatholic #lithuania #lithuanian #lithuaniancatholic #hillofcrosses #hillofcrosseslithuania #crosses #crucifix #crucifixes #mysteriousplaces #catholichistory #catholicism #catholicchurch #rosary #rosaries (at Hill of Crosses)

My first visit to Lithuania was in 2016. That summer, I totally missed the crazy coup in Turkey cos I was camped out at a music festival in neighbouring Latvia. I read about this hill of crosses but was too lazy to figure out the bus connections tsk tsk. @jvahiz drove down a gravel country road to get here, no thanks to Google Maps and I think we totally earned the free parking for this visit. Read: https://kryziukalnas.lt/?id=44 Most reviewers found this place sad or spooky but I took one look at some crosses left behind praying to "Liberate Hong Kong" and that hit close to home. #hillofcrosses #lithuania #jurgaičiai #visitlithuania 🇱🇹 (at Hill of Crosses) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC-x4x8B7VQ/?igshid=18l6z1vk0v33u
